The Brompton Hospital for con-
sumptives, in London, reports that
over fifty people out OF every hun
dred consumptives are victims of
constipation or inactive kidneys.
Consumption Is one of our nation
al diseases, and the above report
goes to prove what has often been
said in our columns during the last |
eight years, THAT kidney troubles
are not only the cause of more than
half Of the cases of consumption,
but of ninety of every hundred oth
er common diseases. They who
have taken this position, make their
claims sitter elaborate investigation,
and their proof that they have dis
covered a specific tor the terrible
and steadily diseases, which have
become so prevalent among us, is
wise and convincing.
We have recently received from
them a fresh supply of their won
derful advertising. They have chal-
lenged the medical profession and
science to investigate. They have
investigated, and those who are
frank have admitted the truth of
their statements. ssThey claim that
ninety per cent of diseases come
originally from inactive kidneys;
that these inactive kidneys allow
the b.ooi to become filed with uric
acid poison; that this uric acid poi
son in the blood carries disease
through every organ.
There is enough uric acid devel-
oped in the system within twenty
four hours to kill half-dczen men.
This being scientific fact, it re-
quires only ordinary wisdom to see
the effect inactive kidneys must
have upon the system.
Ifthis poison Is not removed. il
ruins every organ. If the bowels
stomach or liver become inactive
we know it once, but other organs
help them out. II the kidneys be-
come constlpated and dormant, the
warning comes later on, and otter
when it is TOO late, because the eff
fects are remote from the kidneys
and those organs are not suspected
to be out of order.
Organs that are weak and dis
eased are unable to resist the at.
tacks of this poison, and the diseas,
often takes the form of and is treat
ed as a local affection, when in re
atty the real cause of the troubl,
was inactive kidneys.
Tco many men of the presen
day hold what was a fact twenty
years ago, that kidney disease i
incurable, according to the medi
cines authorized by their code
Hence they ignore the origina
cause of disease itself, and give
their attention to useless treatmen
of local effects.
They dose the patient with qui
nine, morphine, or with salts an.
other physics, hoping that thus ma
ture may cure the disease, Will,
the kidneys continue to waste avs,
with Inflammation, liberation ant
decay, and the victim eventuall
perishes.
The same Quantity of blood tha
passes through the heart passe
through the kidneys. If the kid
neys are diseased, the blood soak
up this disease and takes it al
through the system. Hence it il
that the claim is made that War
ner's safe cure, the only know
specific for kidney diseases, cure
, 80 per cent. of human ailments, be.
, cause it, and it alone, is able t,
maintain the natural activity of tn
, kidneys, and to neutralize and re
) move the uric acid, or kidney poi
son, as fast as it is formed.

eases of delicate women. II TIL

es, would not exist.
